Mr. Geo. E. Roberts,
Director of the Mint,
Treasury Department,
Washington, D. C.

Dear Sir:

We beg to acknowledge receipt of your favor of the llth
instamt, contents of which we have noted with thanks.

Referring to the two lots of silver so far received by us
under our arrangement for the deposit of silver bullion in San Fran-
cisco against shipment of the same to us here from Philadelphia, we

would say that, in valving silver for express purposes, the Mint

seems to have valued the same at a value far above the market.

We have written to the Superintendent of the Mint in Philadelphia,
requesting him in future to value the silver at its market value in
order not to pay too much expressage. Kindly instruct the Super-
intendent at Philadelphia to that effect. We should be pleased
if future shipments to us will be valued at the fixed rate of 62-1/2
cents per ounce, which valuation might be taken on the basis of the
enext highest even thousand ounces, to save the inconvenience of

figuring the value on odd amounts.

Yours truly,

p.p.J, & W. SELIGMAN & C0,

Dear Sir:-

I have made a careful examination of the machinery in this
Mint and recommend the purchase of the following machines and
necessary material with their approximate cost.

Two sets of rolls $2500.00

One lot of shafting

Belting for shafting
The superintendent of machinery, Mr. Emery, and myself have looked
the matter in hand over thoroughly and agree that the Mint is in
need of such improvements for an increased output.

In addition to this I would suggest that a typewriter be

employed in Superintendent Boothby's office.

Very respectfully,

Hon. F. A. Vanderlip, Ang oe.

Asst. Secretary of Treasury,

Washington D., a,

I wovld recommend the purchase,per requisition of the Supt
of the U S Mint of New Orleans,two rolling mills,to cost $2500.
one lot of shefting,to cost $925.and belting to cost $500.
Having gone carefully over the ground,I believe that with
the purchase of the above Machinery we will be able to increase
the output of the Mint from 50 to 100%.
Respectfully Yours.

TO THE HONORABLE DIRECTOR, wie Me
J. S. MINT, PHILADELPHIA.
Dear Sir3~-

In accordance with the arrangement consummated with
the Honorable Secretary of Treasury and vour Office by J. & W. Seligman
& Go,, Now Vork, for the delivery to said firm of fine Silver (through
U. S. Express Co., Expressage to New York at their charge) in quantities
equal to deposits of fine Silver made by us here with the U. S. Mint.
we beg to notify you that we deposited with the U. 8S. Mint here for

account of J, & W. Seligman & Co., New York

Oct. 3/'98 ...499396.19 oz. computed on basis of I000 fine.
4/198 41636.06 7

and will deposit before the I4th. inst. in fine bars additional 125,000
perhaps more, We have no doubt that under our present arrangements, we
shall be able to deposit this month a least 500,000 ozs, and perhaps
an amount equal to the monthly requirements for the coinage of Silver
at the San Francisco Mint. This however, provided that no unexpected
demand for Silver shows up for export to China, India and other Oriental
Countries, We feel pleased that by the existing arrangement » We Shall
succeed in saving the Government the cost of shipping Silver to this
City and in securing thereby to the Silver producers somewhat better
egg their product, of which they appear very mich in need, We
ts Ie
think that no unécue delay will show wo abe the Philadelphia Mint, in the

delivery and Shipment to J, & W. Selignan & Co, , New York of the fine

RG104 E-229 Box 108

2
Bars due them against our deposits heresy We hereby beg to lodge
with you a general authority and otder for the shipment and delivery to
said firm of the equivalent of all devosits made by us here, We suge
gested to them in order to facilitate settlements, that in case the
Pnuiladelphia Mint cannot deliver the exact equivalent of our Deposits
here, that deliveries should be made as closely as possibie aud palances
in our favor be carried over or continued until a final Letttiement @an
be made, . This of ounce if it is consistent with the rules and regu=
lations established in your Mint. _

Several years ago, when your Mint purchased Silver from the Public
permission was given to the Mint here for receiving foreign Silver coin
such as Mexican Dollars etc, free of a refining charge and only subject
to the usual melting and alloy charge, the latter for the alloying of
the metal to the U. S. Mint, fineness of 900, It occurred to us that
you may find it convenient with the Mint quetifieatiens regulations to
instruct the San Francisco Mint to receive foreign Silver Coins, say
Mexican Dollars, wpon the same conditions, that is without Refining,
charge and account to the depositor for the fine Silver contained in
‘Said coin, with only nielting and alloy charges to be paid by the deposi-=
tors. fhis would enable us undoubtedly to increase frequentay the
amount of Bar Silver deposits with the Branch Mint in our city. We
await your kind decision, relat ing to the aforementioned proposition
and beg to ask you if convenient to wire us same_at: our expense,

Yours very respectfully,
The Anglo-GatfTrornian Bank, Ld.

OE Manager.

WASHINGTON, D. Cc.

October I3, - IE%.

Geo. E Roberts,

Director of the Mint.

Dear Sir:
Your esteemed favor of I2 inst. has been duly received.
The figures communicated t-o You in my letter of 1-4
March I€98 were given to me by the Chancery of Credit of the
Ministry of Finances and show the total coinage of silver,

executed for the Russian -Government not only in our mint, but

also in the French Mint in Paris, which has done during se-

veral years a large coinage of silver for our account, our
mint having been too busy with the coinage of gold coins.
J have no information here as to whether the French
Mint has coined for our account gold coins.
The figures given to You by Your Agent refer only to
the coinage of the Mint of St.-Petersburg.

Yours truly

Financial Agent of Russi

THE USE OF ALUMINIUM FOR COINS.

Written for THe ALUMINUM WoRLD by Joseph W. Richards, Ph.D., of Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pa.

’ FIRST PAPER.

Aluminium had been manufactured in quantity scarcely
a year, and the large ingot exhibited at the exhibition of
1855 had not ceased to excite curiosity, before the
Parisians were debating, pro and con, its adaptability for
coinage. ‘The issue of Za Presse for the tenth of May,
1856, contained the following editorial on this subject:

“Tt has been said that aluminium may some day re-
place gold and silver in our coins, Aluminium can never
be destined to such a use. In fact, that which contributes
to gold any silver the special characteristics of precious
metals, tha which has determined their choice for this
purpose, is the facility with which they can be withdrawn
from their alloys and re-converted into pure metal. By
very simple chemical operations, gold and silver are ex-
tracted in the pure state from any combination in which
they may occur. Aluminium is unfortunately without
this property; it cannot be separated in the metallic state
from its divers compounds. In place of aluminium, the
attempt yields only alumina, the common base, without
any particular value. Such a circumstance prevents the
use of aluminium along with silver and gold in our coins.

. Further, a metal of such common occurrence, forming a
large part of the clay which we literally tread under our
feet, and whose value may vary from all sorts of circum-
stances, can in no case be accepted as the representative
sign of wealth.”

To understand rightly the ground taken by the eminent
Parisian journal, we must remember that aluminium was
costing at that time forty dollars a pound, or more than
double as much as silver, that a coin equal in value to a
silver five-franc piece would indeed have been of only
half the weight but twice the bulk (since aluminium is
one-fourth as heavy as silver), and that the aluminium
industry was far from being on a regular, commercial
foundation.

M. Henry Montucci, a member of the French Academy
of Sciences, saw in the above article an idea which
seemed to him of great moment. France was at that
time suffering from a bad case of the ‘‘silver question.”

The Crimean War and heavy imports from the East had
caused a\serious drain of European silver towards the

Orient. French metal being of better quality than that
of its neighbors, the drain was felt very heavily in France.
The high price of silver gave the opportunity to numer-
ous unscrupulous persons to melt the French coin into
ingots and obtain the extra value by selling it to other
governments. Conditions had become so serious that
heroic measures were necessary to keep the silver in the
country.

M. Montucci saw these conditions, and formulated his
remedy in the following terse sentences:

“If it is true that the facility with which gold and sil-
ver can be separated from their alloys is the veritable
reason that has caused their adoption for money, it is
also true that it is just this quality which causes the
inconvenience which is being felt to-day, that is to say,
which causes our coin to disappear from circulation, for a
very small profit to be obtained causes it to be melted
down in the crucible.”

It is unfortunately necessary to admit that there are

no fiscal devices which can retain this subtle agent in cir-
culation when private interest finds it profitable to make
it disappear. What is wanted is a means of preventing

. the remelting and refining of silver without diminishing

its real value. An alloy of nine parts of silver to one
part of aluminium, by weight, is white and ductile
enough for the pupose of coining. It is certain that by
making use of such an alloy for our silver coins, the loss
of the melter who endeavored to extract the silver would
be excessive, for he could, indeed, separate out the sil-
ver, but in doing so must sacrifice the value of all the
aluminium contained. His industry would, therefore.
become impossible, because unprofitable. The public
would have the advantage of a coin having a real value
perfectly equal to its nominal value, but which would
never be drawn out of the country, as our coin is at pres-
ent, by a rise in the value of silver.

“The government in issuing such a coin to the people
would have a perfect right to say, I provide for the needs
of the country several kinds of money, some for larger
payments, others for small debts; I calculate according
to experience the proportions of each; but, if you put the
silver into the crucible, you cause an inequality in the
monetary system, you do harm to the public good, you
cause people to have to pay illegal premiums, you favor
underhand practices. When you receive a bank note you
know very well that you cannot put it into the crucible,
and yet you take it without question. Why? Because
you know that you can convert it into its face value at
any time that you may wish. Sjmilarly with the money
made of aluminium and silver; you cannot put it into the
crucible and extract more than its face value; it will, in
fact, yield much less; but yet, in spite of this, it Aas a
real value equal to its face value, and you can, when you
please, exchange it for gold as a légal tender at its nomi-
nal value. That is all you have a right to require; no
more, no less; and that I grant you.”

Montucci concludes as follows: ‘‘ Deprived of the re-
source of the French silver, the melter would seek his
occupation elsewhere, and very soon the other countries
of Europe would be supporting the loss now falling so
heavily on France. Foreign governments would thus
find themselves forced to adopt the same means to save
their silver, and equilibrium would soon be established.
Only one thing would be lost—the culpable business of
the money melter.”’

So much for Montucci’s idea for preventing the
re-melting of silver coin. He elaborated his scheme at
some length in a small pamphlet entitled, “‘L’Aluminium
Considéré Comme Matiere Morétaire,” published in Paris
in 1856, under the wom de plume of H. M. Ward. His
idea was never put into practice.

Returning to the idea of coins consisting wholly of
aluminium or of an alloy in which aluminium should be
the chief component, we must again refresh our memories
with the circumstances of those times, namely, that by
1860 aluminium was selling for 130 francs a kilo, equal to
$12 a pound, which would permit its use for coins of the
smallest denominations. ;

The Belgian government, before adopting the nickel-

copper alloy for small coins in 1860, carefully considered
the propriety of adopting aluminium. I do not have
access to a copy of the report of their deliberations, but
it is stated that they rejected it for several reasons. One
of the chief of these must have been, at that time, the
question of a quantity of the metal large enough to sup-
ply a national coinage. The whole yearly product of
aluminium at that time would not have furnished a frac-
tion of the amount needed, and it is not likely that the
Belgian financiers cared to connect the erection of an
aluminium works with their currency plans. Very hand-
some test coins of aluminium are also said to have been
made about this time, both in England and the United
States, but the time for an aluminium coinage was cer-
tainly not yet ripe.

i Mottuce! had already proposed, in his pamphlet of
1856, the use of aluminium in place of copper coins, if its
price should fall as low as that of silver. This actually

happened in 1860, and continued for many years there-

after. In 1865 the subject was again resurrected by
Montucci. He made a set of blanks representing a pro-
posed set of small value coins, and, through the influence

of the Comte de Chabrier, director of the archives, had
them brought to Louis Napoleon’s. attention. The Em-
peror was interested in the plan, and, after a disussion
of the subject wittr M. Montucci, it was decided that tests
would be made on a larger scale at the mint, and, if
favorable, the national small coins would be altered. The
further intention was for France to declare a monopoly of
the aluminium industry and make its manufacture a State
concern, like the Gobelin tapestry and Sevres ware.
Aluminium was to be alloyed with both gold and silver,
to prevent them from being melted abroad, as proposed
in 1856. The exciting political events of the next few
years, culminating in the fall of the Empire, put a stop
to the proposed improvements; the matter was pigeon-
holed and effectually extinguished. *

Since the above-mentioned episode, no government has

taken up the matter seriously. In 1872 some el pieces

marked, ‘‘} real, 1892,” were struck in Paris, where one
may be seen in the Monetary Museum, and the specimens
were sent to various mints in Europe. ‘This coin was two
centimetres (0.8 inch) in diameter, and yet weighed pet
one gramme (154 grains). A comparison of this wit

copper or bronze coins of similar size showed what a
great convenience the lightness would be. It was
remarked, then, that the chief difficulty would arise from

-the uncertain price at which the metal could be produced;

that the pure metal was probably too soft to wear well,
but that some hardening material might be incorporated
with it, as is done with gold and’ silver, without interfer-
ing with its peculiar properties. :

In 1889, there were coined in Paris a large number of
five centimes pieces (one cent) in aluminium. Many vis-
itors to the Exposition of that year brought back these
mementos with them, and it may well be said that a more
beautiful coin has seldom been seen. It is prossibly a

fraction larger in diameter than the United States cent,
of nearly the same thickness, and weighs just one-third
as much.

The preceding facts regarding the history Of pure alu-
minium coinage are all that the writer has been able to
gather on the subject. Possibly other experiments than
these recorded have been made, but the vasettled state of
the aluminium industry during the last ten years, the con-
tinual fall in its market value, have acted strongly against
any definite action in this line. Now, however, that alu-
minium is selling at a price of fifty cents a pound, and
has reached a production of a thousand tons a year, a
nearly constant value is assured, as well as a steady sup-
ply, and the writer believes that the time is opportune to
urge upon our Government the advantages of clean, light,
non-poisonous aluminium for our smallest coins.

In a subsequent article, the writer proposes to examine
in detail the claims of aluminium for this purpose, with the
results of critical tests in comparison with the present coin.

SECOND PAPER.

We may say that civilized nations ordinarily use three
kinds of money, viz., that which is intrinsically worth its
face value, that which is intrinsically worth only a frac-
tion of its face value, and that which is intrinsically worth
nothing atall. The last is, of course, paper money; the
second, the minor coinage and most silver money; the
first, the all-powerful gold coin, and at times some silver.
Occasionally a fourth kind is seen; that is, coins whose
real value is more than their nominal value; but the
money-melter, always alert to utilize such occasions, very
quickly causes such coins to vanish from circulation, and
while the community suffers for small change, he turns
his honest penny.

Paper money is very convenient. Its very first recom-
mendation is its lightness and the small space it can be
folded into, while it is equal to its face value in gold as
long as the government issuing it is able to redeem its
obligations. Let that assurance fail, however, and we
might as well paste them in our scrap-books, or use them
as ‘‘ Continental shin-plasters.”

Gold coin is the only money that is of standard, unva-
rying value. A gold dollar is always a dollar, whether
governments fail, credit collapses, or the bottom drops
out of everything else. The effort of any govermment
to make two metals both serve as standards of value is as
fallacious in theory as it is demoralizing in practice. It
needs no argumeut to prove this fact to the American
people in these ‘‘ good Democratic times,”

As to silver money, our Bland dollar contains at present
only sixty cents worth of silver. When they were first
coined they contained ninety cents worth. Before the
war the silver dollar was made originally with 974 cents
worth of silver, and a slight rise in the market value of
that metal made them disappear so quickly into the mel-
ter’s pot that coin collectors put a premium on them and
began putting them into their cabinets. At this juncture
our Government decided that it was making the silver
coin too good for the public convenience, and coined the
Bland dollars as just described.

The moral of all this is, that in order to protect the
public from the insufferable inconvenience of losing all
its small change, it is necessary to make the silver money
intrinsically worth considerably less than its face value,
and to ensure its circulation by promising to exchange it
for gold if any one desires to redeem it. To the extent to
which this lessening of its real valne is carried on, the
silver coin becomes a token.

By the latter term, however, we generally mean. to
refer only to the coins made of base metals. “The small-
est silver piece that could be coined is too large for the
small transactlons of the market-place, and cheaper
metals must be called upon to fill this need. But it is
found that the base metals best suited for coinage are too
cheap; to give them anything like their nominal value
would make them insufferably heavy. Some governments
haye tried the expedient of mixing silver with a cheap

metal, copper, and so making an alloy of the desired
value. Such coins were made in abundance in Europe,
carrying as low as twenty-five percent. of silver, and very
soon, from the dirty yellow appearance which they took
on wearing, obtained the nick-name J//on—a word whose
origin is much disputed, but it occurs to me that its sound
suggests a kinship to the German ‘‘d///ig.”” If any one
desires to see at home coin of this very poorly-suited
material (although ours is much better than the Euro-
pean, containing 75 per cent. of silver), you have only to
look at the next three cent silver piece you may receive.
This expedient being a failure, the question remains,
what is the most suitable material of which to make our
minor coins? We can easily enumerate a few of the con-
ditions which such a metal must fill. ;
First.—It should be cheap, because, when making a
token coin, it really makes no difference at all to the pub-
lic whether its value is one-tenth or nine-tenths of what it
passes for; butit makes great difference to the govern-
ment, sifice it issues them at face value, and is called

upon to redeem very few.
DSaebadh At should be handsome. The general run of

the comnion people are really more fastidious in this mat-
ter than iis generally supposed. When the French gov-
ernment, in 1854, substituted fine bronze coins for the
dark copper ones, the latter were very quickly retired

from circulation; people did not care any more to handle
them.

Third.—It should not readily corrode. No one wants
to carry coins which line the pocket with green poison if
it happens to be a hot summer day, or that require a plen-
tiful supply of soap and hot water to remove the dirt and
smell occasioned by counting over a few dollars worth.

fonrth.—It should be capable of being perfectly
melted, cast, rolled, punched and stamped, taking a
sharp impression. This is really the first pre-requisite of
a metal for coinage.

Fifth,—It should be durable in wear. No metal which
is brittle or soft need enter the race.

Stxth.—It should be easily procurable in quantities suf-
ficient for the needs of the mint, and its value should be
as fixed as possible. These requisites are self-evident,
and if not filled, might exclude an otherwise suitable ma-
terial.

Seventh.—It should be hard to counterfeit. This is
hardly of so great relative importance as it would be for
coins of higher value, since it is much more difficult to
pass a large quantity of new small coin.

Lighth.—\t should be as light as possible. In 1857, it
was estimated that the English people had in their tills
or were carrying around in their pockets ¢hree hundred and

Jifty tons of copper pence and ha’pennies. Need any
other ‘argument be produced than this simple fact to

plead for making the small coins as light as possible con-
sistent with giving them a convenient size?

Iam not a professional numismatist, nor yet an autho-
rity on the art of coining, or I might yet add to these re-
quirements of a metal for minor coins. Mr. Eckfeldt,

the chief assayer of the Philadelphia mint, where ae our
small coins are made, would certainly insist that, from
his point of view, a very importantyrequirement had been

i i 7 would certainly only think
omitted, one which we laymen }
of by accident, namely, it should not be too difficult to
analyze. :

Now, of all the metals, alloys, compounds or mixtures
known to mankind, where shall we find a single one to fill
the bill, as our theatrical friends would say. One may
be too cheap, another too dear; one to hard to coin,
another too soft to wear; yet another which might fill all
the requirements except that it was poisonous, or cor-
roded easily, or had a poor color, or could not be obtained
on the market at a reasonably fixed price.

In the presence of this formidable list, we may as well
own up at once that there is no metal or alloy which is
perfectly adapted for the purpose. The question then
narrows itself down at once.to this: ‘*Which is the best
adapted?” Let us briefly consider the qualifications and
disqualifications of the only materials practically available:

1. Coin Silver.—Too valuable, coins too small, not
durable enough for small coins.

2. Billon.—Too valuable (the silver in it is really
wasted), yellowish paltry appearance, not durable enough.

3. German Silver.—Cheap, easily worked and looks
well when new. On the other hand, too soft, takes on a
brassy look, and changes in composition on remelting
because of the volatility of the zinc it contains.

4. Pure Copper.—Cheap, plentiful, constant in price,
easy to work. Soft, easily oxidizes, disagreeable odor,
poisonous, poor color, gathers dirt, heavy.

5. Bronze.—Preferable to copper, being much harder,
handsome when new, but soon tarnishes and gets a dis-
agreeable odor; specifically heavier than copper.

6. Copper-Nickel Alloys. Usually one-quarter nickel.
This is the material of our five-cent pieces, and is un-
doubtedly the best material hitherto used for token coins.

It is cheap enough, handsome, difficult to coin, but, with

care and proper appliances, coins perfectly. It is, further,
hard to counterfeit, durable in wear and resists corrosion
very well. The one great drawback, which can only be
mentioned, however, when comparing it with aluminium,
is its weight. It is heavier than either copper or bronze.
Up to June 30, 1893, there had been coined in the United
States 258,342,548 of these five-cent pieces, the total
weight of which is 2,847,708 pounds, perhaps half of
which is in circulation, and a considerable part of this
being carried around in people’s pockets. Indeed, a me-
chanical engineer might calculate the number of horse- .
power which would be required daily to do the work of
moving this mass of metal. He might be able even to
express it in mule power.

Joking aside, however, it would seem to be a most
beneficent work to try to lighten this dead-weight, which
the necessities of every-day life lays upon, or rather puts
into the pockets of, our long-suffering countrymen.

In a next and final paper we will consider the suitability
of aluminium for this purpose.

THIRD

In our first paper we noted the historical side of the
subject; in the second, we reviewed the conditions to &
filled by a coinage metal; in this concluding paper we
wish to examine serfafim the points in which aluminium is
weak or strong as a metal for coins. 2

First.—A metal for small coins must be cheap. The
value of the metal in a five-cent nickel piece is less than
two-fifths of a cent;in the bronze cent it is about one-
seventh of acent.. I do not know what our government
paid for these metals this last year, but in 1893 they cost
the mint 32 cents a pound for the copper-nickel alloy, and
20 cents a pound for the bronze alloy, in rolled shot
ready for coining. Now these two alloys are exactly
three and one-third times as heavy as aluminium. ‘To be

equally as cheap, the rolled strips of aluminium would

need to be furnished the mint at $1.07 pempoupd. socom.
ai foleel = 1 $0.67 per pounc om pete
Fee Eee ee FLL SIEhe apresene | ankae a quScukione 1Of

aluminium in ingots is $0.50 per pound. Allowing $o.15
for rolling and polishing, it is seen that aluminium would
cost as nearly as possible the same as bronze, coin for
coin, and would be one-third cheaper than the nickel al-
loy. This difference in cost of the five-cent pieces would
amount to about $20,000 yearly, or over $300,000 on all
the five-cent pieces in circulation. It thus appears that
aluminium is as cheap as bronze and cheaper than nickel
alloy.
Sccond..—A metal for coins should be handsome. The
general public are more tastidious in this matter than
they are given credit for. A pretty coin will, other cir-
cumstances being equal, drive an ugly one out of circula-
tion. Pure aluminium is eminently a handsome metal;
it possesses that combination of qualities best described
by the French term ¢éc/at. Impure aluminium has, it is
true, a bluish, leady cast, but such a quality of metal
should never be coined. ‘The purest aluminium is abso-
lutely white, like virgin silver. Moreover, commercial
aluminium with a slightly bluish tint can be made quite
white by alloying with a small proportion of German sil-
ver, by which it also obtains a greater resistance to
changing color by oxidation. Aluminium is, therefore, in
this respect, eminently qualified for coinage, being the
equal of silver and inferior only to gold.
Third.—A metal for coins should resist corrosion. No
one wishes to absorb poison from tarnished coins, and
the strong metallic odor given off by bronze, particularly,
is quite obnoxious. The ordinary corroding agents met
with are air, water and perspiration. Under any of these
actions aluminium is the equal of nickel alloy; in fact, it
keeps its color better, and is far superior to bronze. A
friend of mine put into his trousers pocket a new medal
the size of asilver dollar, and carried it around constant-
ly for three years. While the exposed parts of the coin
are whitened or frosted by contact with keys and other
articles, yet the sunken parts in the centres of the letters
are as bright and highly polished as when the medal left
the die, showing that chemical corrosion was entirely
absent. I have never observed anything like this on
a silver, nickel or bronze coin that has been in circu-
lation a few months. Further, when these last metals
corrode, the surface becomes rough and won-metallic, and
dirt very easily sticks to it. Such does not happen to the
aluminium coin, which wears away mechanically, without
losing its clean, metallic surface. Dirt does not stick to
aluminium like it does to bronze and nickel alloy. More-
over, if aluminium should corrode, the product formed
is simply alumina, which is absolutely non-poisonous,

RG104 E-229 Box 108

PAPER.

For resistance to corrosion, cleanliness and pe oat
qualities, aluminium is therefore superior to both metals
j for our minor coins.
wih Rae Ba coinage metal must be capable of cere
perfectly melted, cast, rolled, punched and seme: ta :
ing a sharpimpression. The thousands, even millions, o
aluminium medals made during the last few years prove
that in these qualities aluminium is second to no other of
the common metals. It flows very easily in the coining
press, but gives a perfect impression. In fact, the ease
with which it flows allows effects to be produced which

are almost impossible with the harder metals. —
Fifth.—It should be durable in wear. — In this respect,
pure aluminium by itself is not suitable; just as pure gold

and pure silver are too soft, and need to be alloyed, so pure

aluminium is unsuited to be used alone. Fortunately, the
question of hardening it is not a difficult one. The acl
tiom of 2 to 5 per cent. of silver, Copper, nickel, |) teuranr

or German silver, increases its hardness and stfength so
per cent., or even more. The alloy with 5 per cent. of
silver is a very good one, as is also one containing 2.5
per cent. of silver and an equal quantity of copper. The
value of the silver, however, increases the cost of the
alloy. Next to the silver alloy, one made with 3 per
cent. of German silver is to be recommended. Its
hardness is about that of coin silver, but it stands
abrasion better, because of a sort of smooth, oily surface.
The specific gravity is only increased from 2.73 to 2.83
by the addition of the heavier metal, while the tensile
strength is fully 60 per cent. above that of aluminium.
It is the writer's purpose to critically test this alloy, and
some other similar ones, in comparison with nickel and
bronze, in which experiments the mint authorities have
kindly volunteered their active co-operation.

_ Meanwhile, we can say of pure aluminium itself that it
isnot very much inferior in wearing qualities to bronze
and nickel. The following experiment was made at the
Philadelphia Mint, under the supervision of Chief Assayer
Eckfeldt. Some aluminium tokens were obtained from
Quint, the medallist, of the size of five and one-cent
pieces. Twenty of the larger ones were put into a small
wooden box, which was placed in a shaking machine,
which gave the box 200 vigorous shakes per minute for
five minutes. ‘The tokens having been weighed before
and after shaking, it was found that they had lost by
abrasion 0.022 per cent. of their weight. An equal num-
ber of five-cent pieces was put through the same test;
likewise a dozen bronze cents and a similar number of

aluminium medals the size of a cent. The results may be
tabulated as follows:

times as much as the bronze, although it showed less de-
facement than either of them. This, however, is not
entirely a fair test of the wearing qualities of the metals
tested, as is shown by the fact that the nickel coins lost
four times as much as the bronze, and yet in actual cir-
culation they wear very nearly the same. In the above
tests, the nickel lost heavily because of its brittleness, while
the bronze resisted the abrasion because of its toughness.
A much better test of the wearing of aluminium, al-
though unfortunately not a comparative one, is furnished
by the medal carried for three years by Mr. Quint, which
has been alreadyalluded to. Inthe same pocket were kept
a piece of steel and aGerman-silver rule. Mr. Quint has
kindly lent me the medal for examination, and also an
unused one identical with it. The medal is rather deep-
ly stamped, not being as flat as a coin would be, and is
exactly the size of a silver dollar. The rather high let-
ters have been slightly disfigured, but the medal is far
from being defaced. Weighing the two medals I found:

Percentage loss of weight, 1.54 per cent.
Percentage loss per year, 0.51 per cent.

As this medal was exactly the size of a silver dollar, I
thought it interesting to compare the percentage lost with
that lost by a silver dollar in ordinary circulation. For
this purpose I weighed several silver dollars and deter-
“mined the loss as follows:

It is only fair to assume that Mr. Quint’s coin received
an amount of wear rather more than the maximum which
can happen to a coin.in circulation, since these are fre-
quently at rest for days at a time. Comparing it, then,
with the coin showing most wear, we may conclude that
the pure aluminium medal wears at least ©.162-0,51==
1-3 as jvell as the silver dollar. An aluminium coin

of properly hardened alloy would probably wear about
equal to the silver dollar.

A similar set of weighings of five cent nickel pieces
showed that they lose in some cases as much as 0.67 per
cent. of their weight in a year, in many Cases 0.37 per
cent., and on the average 0.28 per cent. As Quint’s
medal lost 0.51 per cent. per year, with constant wear, it
would seem that an aluminium five-cent piece would wear
as well as a nickel one.

Another set of weighings with bronze cents showed a
yearly loss of nearly 0.50 per cent. in some Cases, 0.30
per cent. in many others, and an average of 0.23 percent.
It thus appears that bronze cents lose proportionately less
than nickel five-cent pieces, in about the ratio 28-23==1.2

tox. In just about the same proportion do they wear
better than the pure aluminium.

RG104 E-229 Box 108

Does it not appear a reasonable conclusion, that a
properly hardened aluminium coin would wear better than
either the nickel or bronze ?

Stxth.—A metal for coining should be procurable in
sufficient quantities, at a nearly fixed price. The pro-
duction of aluminium in 1894 was over 1,000 metric tons
(about 2,250,000 pounds). The mint bought, in 1893,
425,500 pounds of nickel and bronze alloy. If it had
bought aluminium instead, there would have been re-
quired 141,800 pounds, which is not 7 per cent. of the
total production, and would be in a still smaller propor-
tion this year. The market price of aluminium did not
vary ten per cent. during the year 1894. Under this
heading, therefore, aluminium is entirely suitable for
coinage purposes.

Seventh.—A coinage metal should be hard to counter-
feit. The lightness of aluminium would prevent any
other metal being used in place of it. However, my
friends at the Philadelphia mint suggest that a papier-
maché counterfeit is to be feared, dusted over with alu-
minium powder. I confess that this seemed to me a very
likely objection, until I examined Quint’s medal which had
stood three years’ wear. On noticing the brilliant, un-
tarnished surface at the bottom of the recesses in the let-
ters, it occurred to me that here is an infallible prevent-
ative of a papier-maché counterfeit; for by no dusting pro-
cess.could the recesses of the letters be brought up pol-
ished as they remain on the aluminium coin. All to whose
attention I have brought this peculiarity, have agreed
that this property will prevent counterfeiting.

Lighth.—A metal for coinage should be as light as
possible. All authorities on coining agree that token
coins, whose value is fictitious, should be made as light
as is compatible with convenience in size. In aluminium
we have the paragon of lightness, combined with almost
every other desirable quality of a coinage metal. I have
already stated that pure aluminium coins would be three-
tenths the weight of bronze and nickel, while the
hardened alloyed aluminium will never exceed one-
third. Here is a property whose value might well be
held to neutralize any small difficulties in the path of using
aluminium for coinage. There are probably now in circu-
lation over 5,000,000 pounds of nickel and bronze
pieces in the United States. This could be reduced
3,500,000 pounds by employing aluminium. Not only
is a large part of this moved around several hours a day
by the citizens themselves, but the railways and street
cars do their share of work in moving it; the banks pay
large express bills for boxes of coin hundreds of pounds
in weight. The Philadelphia mint alone pays $25,000 a
year expressage in distributing these minor coins, a sum
which amounted to $300,000 in the years 1878 to 1893.
Two-thirds of this would have been saved had the coins
been of aluminium.

In conclusion, we may say that aluminium is, in every
respect save one, by far the most suitable metal known
for our two smallest coins. That one deficiency is in re-
gard to hardness, and I have every confidence that, within
a short time, an alloy can be shown to the mint authorities,
which possesses this quality to as high a degree as bronze
or nickel. We must recognize the fact that it is very
difficult to get an opportunity to practically test the wear-
ing quality of a new kind of coin, and in a large currency
like ours it is impossible to make experiments. Once
sure that the proper alloy has been obtained, the way will
be clear to petition Congress, in the interests of con-

venience, health and economy, to coin us aluminium five
and one-cent pieces.

Director of the Mint,

Washington, D. C.

I enclose a communication from the Superintendent of
Machinery requesting that there be purchased for the use of this
Mint one precision lathe and attachments, a description and cut of
which you will find on pages 16 & 17 of the enclosed pamphlet.

This is the only lathe which will suit our purposes, as
mentioned in his letter,

Tt seems to be necessary if: the automatic scales are to
be kept in order. The first necessity is to make the new beams
which he informs me if done outside of the Mint will take quite

a@ long while and would cost at least $500.

T respectfully endorse his recommendation,

Very respectfully,

Dear Sir:

the value of the Haitian gourde. I would be pheabed. to have the bene-

Dear Sir:
On Page XCV of the August 1898 number of the Monthly Bullet-
in, it is stated that the silver Gourde Dollar of Haiti is worth 96.5
cents in U. S. money.

Is this not a mistake? We have had the silver dollar and half
dollar here for some time, and they pass for one dollar Nicaraguan cur
rency, just like the Central and South American Pesos and Sols. The
impression I have about their introduction here is that they can be
purchased at from 1/2 to 1.2 cents cheaper than the silver dollars in
circulation at this place.

Nearly all the silver used in this vicinity comes from New Or-
leans and is used in the payment of bananas purchased from the plant-
ers by the Bluefields SS. Co.

Yours,
(Signed) M. J. Clancy,

Consular Agent.

New Orleans, La.
Oct. 3, 1898.
Dear Sir: . -
We have certainly been stirred up by a letter from
the department in which they say they are disappointed in our

September output. To be sure the number of dollars we turned out

was only $410,000.00; less by $445,000.00 than what last months was.

There are two things which count in the amount of money
coined and they are, (I) the dollars and,(2) the number of pieces,
Since this Mint has been started there has never been as many pieces
coined as for the month of September; in fact the coinage runs
nearly two to one in favor of this month. Our overtime for this
month runs $996.00 less than it was last month.

The time taken to turn out a dime, up to the adjusters

room, is practically the same as that for a dollar. It takes as
long to roll & dimes and has taken, up to the present time, as long
to punch them as dollars. ‘fhe same is true in the press room, for
if we sveed up the engine, the dime is thrown too far. To be sure
there is less work on the dimes and quarters in the adjusting room
but very little less work on half dollars.

I have no fear in saying our output will be $1,400,000.00

for this month if we work mostly on dollars. i have gone through

the books to those months in I888 when the largest amounts were coined

and will put the data below. The greatest amount ever coined in this
Mint was in the ¢ three months, March, April, and September of the
year 1888 and never did it exceed $1,200,000,00 although some say

it was more,yet the books do not show it,

RG104 E-229 Box 108

2

All that was coined was dollars until aboyt the year 1890 when they

started givsidérY subsidiary coinage.

Pieces ‘ Pay roll roll, Overtime
I8ss March $X ,200,000.00 1,200,000, “Teo HIS, 3.547,28 | $857.88

188s April I ,200,000.00 I,200, = I3,480.97 | 1432.27

1888 September} I,200,000.00 | 1,200,000, 14,446.28 | 2085.75
1898 September] 410,000.00 | 1,850,000 LLDDevO

As you see our present force is some 54 lees than it was in 1888

and our pay roll about $5,000.10 less.

The overtime, in previous years, has most always been tin
elsewhere than in the adjusting room; but now that is reversed and they

are making most all the overtime, which is as it should be.

At the end of last month five adjusters were put out on
account of civil service and some green hands have been put to work.
This will hinder us to some extent for Oct. yet in spite of that
condition we can easily beat the record of $1,200,000.00 if we work on
dollars, 1% looks to me that the departments pbelives that ten dimes
can be turned # out as quickly as one dollar. I have not written this
letter in defense of lazyness but because I think there has been an
injustice done.

You know,the coiner went in the adjusting room and
congratulated the women on how well they had done and we all felt we
had made a record; when along this letter comes stating that the
department is disappointed in the output. Sunday, Itook a photograph
of the black board on which the amount of money coined is kept, with ¢

the intention of sending you a copy. I shall send one on anyway

for I know we have done good work,

RG104 E-229 Box 108

I add another list which gives the money eoined since
Subsidiary coinage was started. All of them are for the months of

September; for the years since 1892,

We have heard from the press which is to come from Carson

city and expect to have it here most any time.

Another point which I want you to understand about is,
that with the new engine there will need be new Shafting ,as most
of this in use now is not strong enough. The reason, why we have

too small shafting, is very Vgdip.plain. All our rolls are connected
direct to the engine so that the lighter work has been done by the

proper sized shafting; but now, as we are to put the rolls on the
shafting,we have to have a larger size. We will need about two new
rolls and should have them connected about the same time the rest of
the work is completed. I tell you these details so that there will
be no delay in Washington on account of not understanding.

We are compelling all the contracters to do their work

in such a manner that the Mint will not close down an hour, or rather

in such a memner that dt wilt vs wie Leasv Loss to” ene government.
I hope you understand the reason for last months small
output of dollars,
Yours truly.

i ae ae Ereasure Mepartment,

ofnce of Comptrotier of he Sreasury,

Washington. Q. . October 14, 18986

To the Honorable,
The Secretary of the Treasurye

Sirs

By your reference of the 10th instant you request my decision
of the question whether the sum of one hundred dollars can be exe
pended from the appropriation for incidental and contingent Seo sate
of the mint at Philadelphia in decorating the building occupied by
the mint "upon the occasion of the Peace Jubilee."

Appropriations are made for repairs and preservation of public
buildings and the grounds thereof under the control of the Trease
ury Department (act of July 1, 1898, 530 State, 599); for the ue
ries of officers and employees of the mint and the wages of work
men (act of March 15, 1898, da. , 296); and for other purposes; and
in addition thereto the latter act makes an appropriation for incie
dental and contingent expenses of the mint in the following Comat

"For incidental anc contingent expenses, including new machine
ery and repairs, expenses annual assay commission, wastage of ope
érative officers and loss on sale of sweeps (and purchases, not
exceeding five hundred dollars in value, of specimen coins and ores
for the cabinet of the mint), fifty-five thousand dollars,"

RG104 E-229 Box 108

~2e

This last appropriation is made for the purpose of supplement«
ing the principal appropriations mentioned, and it is not applica-
ble to any object not incidental to,contingent upon, or connected
with the objects for which the principal appropriations which it

supplements are made. The words “incidental” and “contingent"

have a very similar meaning. They are defined in the Century Dice
tionary as follows:

“Incidental. Occurring, inseperably or fortuitously, in cone
junction ¥ with ‘something else, usually of greater importance; of
minor importance; occasional; casual: as incidental expenses."

"Contingent. Dependent upon a foreseen possibility; pro-
visionally liable to exist, happen, or take effect in the future;
conditional: as, a contingent remainder after the payment of
debts."

As employed in acts making appropriations these words mean
such casual and unforeseen expenses as are liable to arise in con-~

nection with some object for which some other appropriation makes
specific or general sWotiniliens (2 Lawrence, First Comp. Dece, 73,
and 4 Comp. oe 287.)

From the nature of the relation of a supplemental appropriae
tion to the aeiehoel appropriation which it is intended to Sane
ment it is necessarily implied that the casual and unforeseen exe |

penses for which it provides must be necessary, usual, or appropri~

RG104 E-229 Box 108

ate to tke object for which the principal appropriation is vaciiet
But there is no provision in any of the specifie or ss saat appros
rriations for the mint at Philadelphia which authorizes the dames
ration of the building for such an occasion as the Peace Jubilee,

and such decoration does not appear to be necessary, ucual, or ap=

propriate to the objects for which the appropriations are made.
It is provided by section 3683 of the Revised Statutes that «
"No part of the contingent fund appropriated to any Department,

bureau or office, shallbbe applied to the purchase of any articles

and shall by written order, direct to be procured."

This provision restricts the use of a contingent fund to the

purchase of such articles as the head of the Department shall deem

necessary and proper to carry on the business to which it is inci-

dent, and by implication confides to the discretion of Caegnegs

of the Department the determination of what is necessary tO carry
on such wacisewes The exercise of such discretion within the aus
thority of the law is £ eo disetiove (4 ae Dec., 322.) But the
discretion conferred by this provision is not an unlimited discre-

tion; it is subject to restrictions imposed by other provisions

of hawks The following restriction upon the use Of appropriations

is made by section 3678, Revised Statutes:

“~ ation which it supplements was made.
Substantially the same question as that now presented was pre=
‘sented to and decided by First Comptroller Lawrence. The sum of
= 55, $250 was expended by the superintendent of the mint at. San Fran«
@ieisco for decorating the mint building on the occasion of the visit
oj) of President Hayes to that city in 1880, which was paid from the
“3 © appropriation for contingent expanses of the mint. Comptroller
_..\Lawrence in his opinion said?
"Upon the plain language of section 3683, this expenditure
was unauthorized, because it clearly was not ‘necessary and proper
te carry on the business of the' mint." (2 Lawrence, First Comp.

Dec., 72.)
I have the honor therefore to reply to your question in the

negativee

Hon. C. W. Boothby,
Sup't. of the New Orleans Mint.
Sir:- we are attempting,in many ways, to improve the existing
conditions of this Mint. In every thing undertaken the lack of
men is apparent and improvements decided upon are laid aside because
the absolute necessary duties must he carried on first.
Our desire, in all these changes, is not to aliow the
Mint to close down even for an hour.
For these reasons,therefore, I would advise an increased force in

the Gene¥al Department,

RG104 E-229 Box 108

No. 17. TREASURY DEPARTMENT

New Orleans,La,

Oct 20th/e8.

Hon C W Boothby,Supt,U.S.Mint.
Sirs-

I beg si call your attention to the fact that it is
almost impossible to get any help in the shape of laborers to perform
the work to be done in the Mint,as the force is so smalliand would
advise an increase as soon as possible.

The mechanical force is very small,and at times it is almost
impossible to get any help without taking them from some off the other
departments,and as they appear to be as muxch dprgpidd in need of help
as we are,the chances are very poor in regards to help.

we are now making a “reat many improvments in the mechanical
department of the Mint,and therefore reauire a great deal of help, and
would advise the increase as soon as practical,

Very respectfully yours,

OV &

‘Sir

Mr. Herman Kretz, late Superintendent of the U.S.Mint
at Philadelphia, is a'debtor of the United States in the sum
of one hundred and sixty-three dollars ($163.00) being the
amount of a disallowance made by this office,and approved by
the Comptroller of the Treasury, of a credit claimed by
Mr. Kretz in his Bullion Account for the quarter ending
June 30,1897, as "Additional Shortage in Standard Silver
Dollars on recount of Silver coin contained in Vault "C."
Mr. Kretz has been notified of this balance due from him
put has so far failed to deposit the amount and close his
account. He is at the present time an employe of the Mint
at Philadelphia at a compensation of $5.00 per day, I there-
fore respectfully recommend that the Superingencent of the |
said Mint be directed to withhold a sufficient amount of
Mr. Kretz's compensation to cover the said indebtedness ,which
seems to be the proper course to pursue under Section 1766

Revised Statutes.

Respectfully yours, CG Ui Keak é

Dear Sir:- ald 4
We recejve regularly from the Bureau of the Mint the

7 Mrteriy circular, "Values of Foreign Coins." We find them extremely

useful, and beg to thank you for the same.

We handle at times a good deal of bullion, both gold and sil-
ver; at the present time more particularly Cuban gold coins.

On the 20th instant, we sent to the U. S. Assay Office in this
City, 800 Cuban centenes (of 25 pesetas); the proceeds of the same, with-
out any deduction for charges, was $3,839.15. This would make the value
of the centen $4.7989. The gold, to all appearances, was fresh and no
abrasion appeared.

In view of the fact that in the circular "Values of Foreign
Coins," the Cuban centen is valued at $5.017, there would appear to be a
discrepancy. There may bes and no doubt is some explanation for the
difference, and we would be glad if you would explain how the value of
$5.017 is calculated as the value of the Cuban centen of 25 pesetas,.

We remain, Dear Sir,

Yours very prulys

Hon. L. d. Gage,
Secretary of the Treasury,
Washington, D.C.

Sirte :

On the 14th of December 1897 we requested our correspondent,
The Fourth National Bank of New York, to charge our aecount $500.00
and have the Philadelphia Mint ship us $500.00 in niekels. The
Fourth National Bank of New York requested its correspondent in
Philadelphia to deposit $500.00 with the Philadelphia Mint for ship-
ment of nickels to us. We got no returns, and ultimately were in-
formed that our funds were tied up in the failure of the Chestnut
Street Nationel Bank, and finally in May of this year were tendered,
py the then aeting Director of the Mint, a certificate issued by the
Receiver of the Chestnut Street National Bank in our favor for $500.00
together with two dividend cheeks amounting to %150.00, which we
returned on May 1¢th.1898. to the Direetor of the Mint, elaiming

‘that as in our ease there was no necessity for a bank risk, we were
in no wise responsible, and should have our money in full.

As yet there appears to be a very indifferent prospect of gete
ting it. We have failed to get any satisfactéon from the Director
of the Mint, except to take what is offered bo us, or do as our leg?*l
advisor may suggest.

We suppose the Government exacted a bond from the Superinten-
dent of the Mint, and that the Government is therefore secure, and
ahould pay us our dues without quibble and if there is necessity of
sueing bondsmen the Government should do it and not impose the duty
upon us.

We enclose herewith copies of correspondence in the matter, which
Bind explanatory and corroborates our assertions in regard to the
matter,

Kindly give this matter your consideration and inform us at your
very earliest convenience if we must take the von2 that is offered us
or spend years of time and two or three times thr sum involved,in try
ing to obtain our just duer from the hands of our own Government,

Very Truly Yours,
ee Pe AIL EY Cashier.

Philadelphia August 11, 1898.

Mr. Frank E. Hilton, Ass’t Cashier,
First National Bank, San Diego, Cal.
Dear Sir:

Referring to your letter of the 20th ultimo, I would say
that we have had eorrespondence with both the Superintendent of the
Mint in this city and the Bureau of the Mint (Treasury Department),
Washington, and we are to-day in receipt of the following een ies
tion:

"Your letter of the 26th ultimo, to the Superintendent of the
Mint at Philadelphia, in relation to deposit of $500 made by vou at
the Mint December 22, 1897, for shipment of nickels to be made to the
First National Bank of San "Diego, Cal., has been referred to this
Bureau.

* In reply you are respectfully informed that thr Bureau cannot
unders*end why, as this sum was paid to the then Superintendent in
eurveney, it should have been deposited by him with the Chestnut
Street National Bank, i

"There ave ninety-eight cleims for remittances made to the lete =
Superintendent of the Mint for Minor Coins end by him deposited in ~
the Chestnut Street Nat?1 Bank. While the Department holds that it
is in no way responsible for his action in this matter, he having
seleeted the Chestnut Stree# National Bank in which té "aeposit eheeks
sent him for colleetion, it was endeavored to secure the adjustment

of these claims in the’ manner as seemed best for all coneerned.
With this in view the late Superintendent w as requested to furnish
@ list of Banks whose remittances were deposited in the Chestnut
Street National Bank, and the Receiver upon receipt of this statement
issued a certificate "in favor of the respective banks, among the
certificates issued was one for $500 to the First National Bank of
San Diego, which they have deeclinea to aecept in settlement.

un. Thecdividends. dee lared and paid. thus far aggre negate £0 cont eent
and from information derived from the Comptroller o Curreney ema
it is believed that all claims wili be paid in full.

" As the First National Bank of San Diego, California, is un-
willing to accept the method of settlement proposed , the only altere
native would appear for them to take such action as their legal ade
visor may suggest,

"Of the ninety-eight banks having elaims on account of remite
tances for minor coins, ninety of them have accepted the Receiver’s
certificate."

"Respectfully Yours,
"8. F. Butler,
“Aeting Diveetor of the Mint."

which you sent us.
